Rationale

Zirda, the Dawnwaker was banned in Legacy due to high win rates and potential metagame dominance when utilized as a companion alongside Grim Monolith. Data indicated that the combination of the two cards represented a threat to the format's balance regarding both win rate and metagame share, necessitating the action.
